About fastapi-templates
This skill gives an AI assistant guidance for building new FastAPI projects. It proposes a recommended layout with separate folders for API routes, core configuration, models, Pydantic schemas, services, and repositories. It also covers FastAPI's built-in dependency injection through Depends, along with async route handlers, async database operations, and async background tasks.
The skill lists the packages its examples use, including fastapi, uvicorn, pydantic-settings, SQLAlchemy with asyncio, asyncpg for PostgreSQL, and PyJWT. It includes a pytest setup that uses pytest-asyncio, httpx, and an in-memory SQLite test database with dependency overrides. It is aimed at developers who want a structured starting point for async Python web APIs.

What fastapi-templates can do
- Project structureSuggests a recommended folder layout for a FastAPI app with routes, services, and repositories.
- Dependency injectionUses FastAPI's Depends for database sessions, authentication, and shared logic.
- Async patternsCovers async route handlers, async database operations, background tasks, and middleware.
- Dependency listLists the pip packages used in the examples, with notes on PostgreSQL and login support.
- Async test setupProvides pytest fixtures with an async client and a dependency override for the database.
What you need
- Python with pip
- Packages from requirements.txt and requirements-dev.txt
- PostgreSQL, if using the asyncpg driver example

Build Gradio web UIs and demos in Python. Use when creating, modifying, debugging, or answering questions about Gradio and its capabilties, components, event listeners, or layouts.
Writes the launch for an app clone: the landing page built on the positioning angle, pricing set against the original's public pricing and its users' complaints, and the App Store and Google Play listing linted against the stores' limits and copycat rules. Use when the user says "landing page", "pricing", "how much should I charge", "App Store listing", "store screenshots", "launch plan", "Product Hunt", or after /replica-brand.
Guides building end-to-end test suites with Playwright and Cypress. It is for developers who write E2E tests, debug flaky tests, or set testing standards.
Adds a self-hosted "Stargazers over time" chart to a GitHub repo's README. It generates a static SVG and refreshes it weekly with a GitHub Action. Useful when a third-party star chart shows "Requires authentication".
Splits a large pull request into smaller PRs so each one needs fewer CODEOWNERS reviewer groups. It is written for contributors to NVIDIA's Megatron-LM repository.
